The Kino Gem & Mineral Show fills the grounds of Kino Sports Complex on Tucson's south side.

The dates, address, free admission and parking, food court and UPS office come from A.S. Shows' own Kino page. That page's hours line currently references Jan 29 and Feb 15, which don't match its own Jan 28 – Feb 14 dates, so check it again closer to the show.
Parking and shuttles
Parking is free, and TucsonGemShow101 counts over 1,000 spaces. On opening weekend and peak days you may end up in an outer lot about a 5-minute walk away; TucsonGemShow101 says free shuttle carts run from the lots. Some outdoor areas are on unpaved gravel, so wear good shoes, and keep that in mind with strollers or wheelchairs.
Kino is also a stop on the free show-run shuttles. For 2026, JOGS' shuttle page listed the Copper route (Kino, G&LW Gem Mall/Holidome, Enter the Earth, JOGS) and the Ruby route (JOGS, Kino, JG&M Simpson Street), both 10 am – 6 pm and sponsored partly by A.S. Shows. 2027 routes haven't been posted yet; see our shuttles guide. TucsonGemShow101 suggests parking free at Kino or JOGS and riding the shuttles to other venues.
Shipping from Kino
A.S. Shows lists a UPS office on site, which is handy for heavy geodes and rock. Compare options in how to ship rocks and minerals home, where to get shipping boxes and USPS Flat Rate box sizes and prices.
